When it comes to anger, there are natural dilemmas that exist when dealing with how you do or don’t express it. Many people who have issues with anger do so because they feel, or the partner feels, that it’s not okay to be angry. And because there is no allowed outlet provided for their upset, things build to an extreme point much more quickly than if there had been permission to experience and display negative emotions (frustration, disappointment, etc.). The Bible states that “In your anger do not sin,” (Ephesians 4:26a) and, along these lines, one of the central concepts of conflict resolution is that it’s okay to feel and express your upset as long as you do it appropriately - ideally, in a way that creates understanding, not does further damage. One of the primary purposes of this book is to not only show better ways to express potential upset, but how to maintain a healthy relationship where, if you follow the guidelines, discussions are unlikely to ever turn into fights.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The Just the Tools edition of Conflict Resolution for Couples is an abbreviated version of Paul Shaffer's first book, Conflict Resolution for Couples - originally published in 2005, and then re-published in 2011. This leaner edition cuts to the chase of couple's conflict resolution, without the foundational and special population sections that made the original book a much meatier but time-consuming work. Just the Tools, while a stand-alone title, also serves as a companion book to Paul's Top 10 Marriage Essentials published in 2014 (and the Top 10 Dating Essentials projected for 2015). It retains the same comprehensive, easy-to-understand, and logical progression found in the original. This book consists of essentially two parts: Part I is about the tools for resolution. It presents a model for managing conflict and itemizes 26 guidelines (the ABC's of conflict resolution) for identifying, validating, processing and resolving issues. Part I discusses strategies for change. It focuses on initiating and maintaining change, understanding lack of change, and healthy routines to support lasting change. Seller Inventory # 00093033813
